Plumber that came to do the service Erick.. was very professional and was very knowledgeable. He took care of my problems. Thank you Erick and RPM Plumbing. I will for sure use them in the future.
Josh and Oscar came on a short notice over the weekend to resolve an emergency at my dental office. Josh did a great job communicating professionally and Oscar even rushed over after church to get the job done on Sunday. The job itself was challenging, but it was resolved without any issues. I will be sure to call RPM next time.

About Our Santa Monica Plumbers
Rooter & Plumbing Masters serves Santa Monica homes, apartment buildings and businesses with licensed, insured crews and a free estimate before any work starts. Our Santa Monica plumbers handle everything from a slow shower drain to a sewer lateral that needs replacing.
Much of Santa Monica’s housing is multi-family and much of it is old: the courtyard and dingbat apartment buildings of Ocean Park, Mid-City and the Pico neighborhood, and the pre-war homes north of Wilshire, largely still run on their original galvanized supply lines and clay or cast-iron drains. Two local conditions make that harder. The city draws a large share of its water from local groundwater, which runs hard and leaves scale in pipes and water heaters, and the salt air off the bay corrodes anything metal that is exposed to it.
Plumbing Problems We See Most in Santa Monica
Sewer lines nobody has looked inside — in a building that has changed hands several times, a camera inspection is the only honest answer to “what condition is the lateral in.”
Low water pressure from galvanized supply pipe — corrosion closes the pipe from the inside long before it leaks.
Water heaters full of sediment — hard water settles in the tank as scale, which shows up as rumbling, slow recovery and lukewarm showers.
Shared-drain backups in apartment buildings — one unit’s clog on a common stack becomes everyone’s problem.

Additional Information
Should I get a sewer camera inspection before buying in Santa Monica?
Yes, if the building is older than about 1970 and nobody can show you footage from the last few years. A sewer lateral replacement is one of the most expensive surprises a property can hold, and a camera inspection is the only way to know the line’s condition before you own it. We record the run and give you the footage.
Why is the water pressure so low in my older Santa Monica apartment?
Usually galvanized steel supply pipe. It corrodes from the inside, and after fifty or sixty years the open diameter can be a fraction of what it was. Spot repairs help for a while; repiping fixes it. We will tell you which one your building actually needs after we have looked, not before.
Don’t Wait – Call Today
Older plumbing gives less warning than new pipe. If you have noticed slow drains, sewer smells, falling water pressure or lukewarm showers, get in touch with the experts at Rooter & Plumbing Masters.

Common Questions
Plumbers in Santa Monica, CA — Common Questions
Is there a plumber available in Santa Monica right now?
Yes. Rooter & Plumbing Masters runs open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including nights, weekends and holidays. Calls to (888) 855-6680 are answered by a person rather than an answering service, and crews are dispatched from our own shop at 1601 Paramount Blvd. in Montebello.
How much does a plumber cost in Santa Monica?
It depends on what is wrong, how accessible the pipe is and whether the fix is a repair or a replacement, so no honest plumber can quote a figure over the phone without knowing those. The estimate is free, and you get the price for the job before any work starts. Financing is available if the repair is a large one.
Are you licensed and insured to work in Santa Monica?
Yes. Rooter & Plumbing Masters holds California CSLB contractor license #1004038 and carries insurance. You can verify the license yourself through the CSLB's public license lookup — we would rather you did.
How quickly can you get to Santa Monica?
We offer same-day availability and we will not promise you an arrival window before we know what else is running. Call (888) 855-6680 and the dispatcher will give you a real time rather than a guess. Santa Monica is inside our regular service area, so it is not an out-of-area trip.
What plumbing problems do you handle in Santa Monica?
Clogged and slow drains, sewer line backups and rooter work, hydro jetting, sewer camera inspections, leak detection, water heater repair and replacement, repiping and pipe repair, toilets, sinks, showers and tubs, emergency shutoff valves, and commercial plumbing. Residential and commercial both.
